1
00:00:00,086 --> 00:00:01,375
[Lynn] Previously, on
"Black Lightning"...
2
00:00:01,459 --> 00:00:02,055
Aah!
3
00:00:02,140 --> 00:00:03,860
[Gambi] That small cluster
of energy particles.
4
00:00:03,944 --> 00:00:05,383
It's gotta be her.
I'm going up there.
5
00:00:05,467 --> 00:00:06,898
[Lynn] Even if
that cloud is Jen,
6
00:00:06,992 --> 00:00:09,259
your body would not be able
to absorb that kind of energy.
7
00:00:09,343 --> 00:00:11,720
[Jefferson] Because I'm so close
it's like I can hear her calling to me.
8
00:00:11,804 --> 00:00:13,210
[Gambi] At least in concept,
9
00:00:13,295 --> 00:00:14,609
the particle condenser
will begin
10
00:00:14,717 --> 00:00:16,595
to transmute
the energy into matter.
11
00:00:16,680 --> 00:00:18,296
[Jefferson]
Then Jen walks out.
12
00:00:20,477 --> 00:00:21,613
[Jefferson] How do we
turn her back?
13
00:00:21,697 --> 00:00:22,757
[Gambi] Turn her back?
14
00:00:22,842 --> 00:00:24,804
It's a miracle
she survived at all.
15
00:00:24,889 --> 00:00:28,232
We're just gonna have to accept
the fact that this is the new Jen.
16
00:00:28,317 --> 00:00:31,323
[Khalil] Would a traitor get you the
ballistics from the Mayor's killing?
17
00:00:31,408 --> 00:00:32,531
Notice anything unusual?
18
00:00:32,616 --> 00:00:34,230
They're still in the casing.
19
00:00:34,315 --> 00:00:36,361
- What the hell?
- How do you fire a bullet without a gun?
20
00:00:36,445 --> 00:00:37,617
So a meta did it?
21
00:00:37,702 --> 00:00:39,727
- Where are you with Val?
- [Lynn] I just got her blood results back.
22
00:00:39,811 --> 00:00:41,353
[Jefferson] So she's a meta
working for Tobias?
23
00:00:41,437 --> 00:00:42,868
How do we find out
what her power is?
24
00:00:42,952 --> 00:00:45,329
[Lynn] We'd have to create a
meta-booster and inject it into someone.
25
00:00:45,413 --> 00:00:46,412
[Jefferson] Okay, great.
Do it.
26
00:00:46,497 --> 00:00:47,893
I don't think
that's a good idea.
27
00:00:47,978 --> 00:00:48,865
[Gambi] What is it?
28
00:00:48,950 --> 00:00:50,602
[Lauren] It's called an
energy field emitter.
29
00:00:50,686 --> 00:00:52,039
Wait a minute.
Power.
30
00:00:52,193 --> 00:00:53,493
Maybe that's the reason
we haven't been able
31
00:00:53,577 --> 00:00:54,976
to extend the range
on the emitter.
32
00:00:55,008 --> 00:00:57,790
It's too bad we can't use
promethium like you did in the DEGs.
33
00:00:57,875 --> 00:00:59,999
It's just such an incredibly
rare mineral element.
34
00:01:00,083 --> 00:01:01,531
Not as rare as you might think.
35
00:01:01,616 --> 00:01:04,015
[Lauren] This is the Go board
from when I beat you.
36
00:01:23,431 --> 00:01:25,088
Ooh, okay.
37
00:01:25,282 --> 00:01:27,313
We agreed to tell them
after the trip, right?
38
00:01:27,398 --> 00:01:30,867
They're gonna be pissed we
didn't tell them sooner. I know it.
39
00:01:31,175 --> 00:01:34,092
All right, well, there's only
one way to find out, right?
40
00:01:35,118 --> 00:01:36,731
Okay.
41
00:01:36,815 --> 00:01:38,428
- Uh, you ready?
- [Grace] Mmm-hmm.
42
00:01:38,512 --> 00:01:39,355
Okay.
43
00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:41,052
[both chuckle softly]
44
00:01:44,997 --> 00:01:45,871
[cracker pops]
45
00:01:45,955 --> 00:01:47,394
Surprise!
46
00:01:47,478 --> 00:01:49,699
- [all cheering]
- Welcome to the family, Grace.
47
00:01:52,178 --> 00:01:54,140
So I might have
put a call in ahead.
48
00:01:54,224 --> 00:01:55,794
Surprise, baby!
49
00:01:55,878 --> 00:01:57,664
You are incredible.
50
00:01:57,749 --> 00:01:58,797
I had to get you.
51
00:01:58,882 --> 00:02:01,016
Come on now, make a speech.
52
00:02:06,703 --> 00:02:10,111
Grace, my love, my heart.
53
00:02:11,284 --> 00:02:13,899
It has been one crazy year.
54
00:02:13,983 --> 00:02:17,594
And truth is, we'll probably
have many not so great years.
55
00:02:17,679 --> 00:02:21,820
If we are lucky, we'll have each other
to spend those crazy days together.
56
00:02:21,904 --> 00:02:24,213
I love you so much, Grace.
57
00:02:24,297 --> 00:02:26,259
- Welcome to the family.
- [all applauding]
58
00:02:26,343 --> 00:02:29,566
I love you, too. Thank
you guys so much for this.
59
00:02:29,650 --> 00:02:32,439
- Welcome to the family, Grace.
- And I wish we told you sooner.
60
00:02:32,523 --> 00:02:34,789
No, you did what you needed
for each other.
61
00:02:34,873 --> 00:02:36,242
That's what marriage is.
62
00:02:36,327 --> 00:02:40,577
Anyways, I'm still mad y'all didn't
take me with you to Akashic Valley.
63
00:02:40,661 --> 00:02:42,275
I could have tested out
my new look.
64
00:02:42,359 --> 00:02:45,104
The only test you need to
be worried about is the SAT.
65
00:02:45,188 --> 00:02:46,322
Harsh.
66
00:02:46,406 --> 00:02:47,628
[banging on door]
67
00:02:47,712 --> 00:02:49,020
[Jefferson] That doesn't
sound good.
68
00:02:49,104 --> 00:02:51,194
No, no, no, I got it.
I got it.
69
00:02:55,851 --> 00:02:57,506
[banging continues]
70
00:03:01,437 --> 00:03:02,920
Can I help you?
71
00:03:03,293 --> 00:03:06,218
Special Agent Kevin Mason, FBI.
72
00:03:07,431 --> 00:03:09,512
Mr. Pierce, we have
a warrant to search this house.
73
00:03:09,597 --> 00:03:11,470
Is there anyone else inside?
74
00:03:12,259 --> 00:03:14,088
My family.
75
00:03:14,217 --> 00:03:16,309
Whoa, whoa.
76
00:03:16,705 --> 00:03:19,970
No one comes inside till you
tell me what this is all about.
77
00:03:23,226 --> 00:03:24,839
[gun cocking]
78
00:03:24,923 --> 00:03:28,190
Mr. Pierce, step aside.
I'm not gonna ask again.
79
00:03:28,414 --> 00:03:29,867
Okay, so it's like that, then.
80
00:03:29,956 --> 00:03:32,090
I'm instructing you
to step aside.

Season 04 Episode 08
84
00:03:53,828 --> 00:03:55,021
Aired on: April 19, 2021
85
00:03:55,112 --> 00:03:57,345
Episode Title:
"The Book of Ruin: Chapter Three"
86
00:03:57,807 --> 00:03:58,898
How could they think
87
00:03:58,983 --> 00:04:00,744
I embezzled money
from Garfield?
88
00:04:01,699 --> 00:04:02,877
The first thing
we have to do
89
00:04:02,961 --> 00:04:05,358
is focus on
clearing your name.
90
00:04:05,442 --> 00:04:07,839
The government froze
my bank accounts.
91
00:04:07,923 --> 00:04:09,795
My assets.
92
00:04:11,056 --> 00:04:12,191
It has to be Tobias, Jeff.
93
00:04:12,275 --> 00:04:13,496
Think about it.
94
00:04:13,580 --> 00:04:15,714
He's trying to destroy
your legacy.
95
00:04:17,715 --> 00:04:19,676
Yeah, that's not gonna happen.
96
00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:21,330
Gambi and TC are at
the Sanctum right now,
97
00:04:21,414 --> 00:04:22,592
diggin' into this.
98
00:04:22,676 --> 00:04:23,855
We'll find a way
to hit back at Tobias.
99
00:04:23,939 --> 00:04:24,899
Well, I'm close
100
00:04:24,983 --> 00:04:26,596
to uncovering
Val's meta powers.
101
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:27,771
[Black Lightning]
Yeah. Good.
102
00:04:27,855 --> 00:04:29,323
If we can prove
she was the meta
103
00:04:29,408 --> 00:04:30,513
that killed Mayor Black,
104
00:04:30,597 --> 00:04:32,037
her only way out will be
105
00:04:32,121 --> 00:04:34,244
to name Tobias as the man
who ordered the hit.
106
00:04:34,329 --> 00:04:35,344
This all goes away.
107
00:04:35,428 --> 00:04:37,172
Yeah, I'm handling it.
108
00:04:37,256 --> 00:04:38,998
Yes. Of course.
109
00:04:42,305 --> 00:04:43,657
Look, I wanna apologize
110
00:04:43,741 --> 00:04:47,224
about the way things went
down the other night.
111
00:04:48,050 --> 00:04:49,357
I'm sorry.
112
00:04:50,008 --> 00:04:51,795
- Are you?
- Yes.
113
00:04:51,895 --> 00:04:55,166
I never meant
to jeopardize your sobriety.
114
00:04:55,422 --> 00:04:58,209
I'm sorry
if you took it that way.
115
00:04:58,408 --> 00:04:59,845
Apology accepted.
116
00:05:02,064 --> 00:05:03,938
You and Jen
seem to be getting back
117
00:05:04,022 --> 00:05:05,373
to your old selves.
118
00:05:09,506 --> 00:05:10,684
Well, it's early.
119
00:05:10,768 --> 00:05:13,643
Jeff, I've run every test
that I can.
120
00:05:13,727 --> 00:05:15,255
I'm still waiting
on the results of one,
121
00:05:15,339 --> 00:05:17,681
but it's only going to prove
what we already know.
122
00:05:18,227 --> 00:05:21,041
That little girl upstairs
is our daughter,
123
00:05:21,126 --> 00:05:23,739
and the sooner
you accept that, the better.
124
00:05:25,913 --> 00:05:27,656
[sighs]
125
00:05:28,655 --> 00:05:30,617
So hard not to light them up.

Having to stand there
127
00:05:32,050 --> 00:05:34,229
and let them completely
destroy my room.
128
00:05:34,313 --> 00:05:35,491
That's why
we work on restraint.
129
00:05:35,575 --> 00:05:37,034
It doesn't come naturally.
130
00:05:37,119 --> 00:05:38,973
Nothing comes natural anymore,
131
00:05:39,057 --> 00:05:41,976
even dealing with the face
I have to walk around in.
132
00:05:42,138 --> 00:05:44,098
What if I never
get used to it?
133
00:05:44,914 --> 00:05:46,220
Come on.
134
00:05:47,674 --> 00:05:50,200
Give it time, Jen, okay?
135
00:05:50,677 --> 00:05:51,943
And can you at least try
136
00:05:52,027 --> 00:05:54,206
to find a bright side
in all of this?
137
00:05:54,290 --> 00:05:57,687
I mean,
it won't be a new face for long.
138
00:05:57,771 --> 00:05:58,819
What?

00:05:58,903 --> 00:05:59,907

like buying a great
pair of heels.

it be a little bit different
142
00:06:03,821 --> 00:06:05,782
the first few times
around in them, right?

00:06:08,125 --> 00:06:10,261

while you can.

- You're crazy.
- Okay.
147
00:06:15,398 --> 00:06:17,316
Kids at school
are already talking
148
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:20,230
about Dad's embezzlement
charges online.
149
00:06:20,751 --> 00:06:22,495
Made the evening news, huh?
150
00:06:22,579 --> 00:06:23,713
As if my first day back
151
00:06:23,797 --> 00:06:25,324
wasn't already gonna be hard.
152
00:06:25,408 --> 00:06:27,152
Well, don't think
about asking Dad
153
00:06:27,236 --> 00:06:28,501
if you can miss school.
154
00:06:28,585 --> 00:06:30,372
We already know the
answer to that.
155
00:06:30,456 --> 00:06:31,373
[sighs]
156
00:06:31,457 --> 00:06:33,506
Come on, Jen. No.
157
00:06:33,590 --> 00:06:36,074
One thing that has not changed
158
00:06:36,158 --> 00:06:37,727
is that you're a Pierce.
159
00:06:37,811 --> 00:06:41,338
And Pierces handle anything
that is thrown at them.
160
00:06:42,164 --> 00:06:43,949
You gonna be good.
161
00:06:45,863 --> 00:06:46,736
Okay?
162
00:06:46,820 --> 00:06:48,126
Okay.
163
00:06:49,345 --> 00:06:51,435
[laughs]
164
00:06:53,392 --> 00:06:54,830
Wow.
165
00:07:04,316 --> 00:07:06,321
I thoroughly enjoyed
that, Val.
166
00:07:06,405 --> 00:07:08,409
Glad I could
provide it for you.
167
00:07:09,626 --> 00:07:11,370
What else you got?
168
00:07:11,454 --> 00:07:15,287
Monovista's behind schedule
on the delivery with no new ETA.
169
00:07:15,371 --> 00:07:16,897
This can't happen.
170
00:07:16,981 --> 00:07:19,378
Monovista has to
deliver on time.
171
00:07:19,462 --> 00:07:21,423
I could drop
by Bates' office,
172
00:07:21,507 --> 00:07:23,380
help motivate the process.
173
00:07:24,597 --> 00:07:26,124
Okay, Red.
174
00:07:26,208 --> 00:07:28,169
Your initiative is noted.
175
00:07:28,253 --> 00:07:29,562
Be my guest.
176
00:07:29,646 --> 00:07:32,695
One more thing, sir.
Dr. Stewart?
177
00:07:32,779 --> 00:07:34,567
Her role in your plan is
as crucial as any,
178
00:07:34,651 --> 00:07:37,352
and we haven't
heard anything from her.
179
00:07:37,436 --> 00:07:39,093
Are you sure she's on track?
180
00:07:39,177 --> 00:07:41,095
What you don't know
about Dr. Stewart is,
181
00:07:41,179 --> 00:07:43,619
her finest quality
when it comes to her work
182
00:07:43,703 --> 00:07:46,622
is she leaves
no stone unturned.
183
00:07:46,706 --> 00:07:49,190
And we're using that
attribute against her.
184
00:07:49,274 --> 00:07:50,799
The best part is...
185
00:07:51,581 --> 00:07:53,279
she has no idea.
186
00:08:02,549 --> 00:08:05,768
For the last time,
you are going to school.
187
00:08:05,853 --> 00:08:08,479
Now let's go over your
backstory one more time.
188
00:08:08,766 --> 00:08:10,640
Name is JJ Stewart,
189
00:08:10,725 --> 00:08:12,469
Jen's cousin on her mom's side.
190
00:08:12,554 --> 00:08:14,051
Big military family.
191
00:08:14,136 --> 00:08:15,750
Tired of being an army brat,
192
00:08:15,834 --> 00:08:17,926
Pierces offered to let me
stay with them in Freeland
193
00:08:18,010 --> 00:08:20,231
so I could finish school
in the States.
194
00:08:20,630 --> 00:08:21,764
How's that?
195
00:08:21,849 --> 00:08:23,757
That'll have to do.
You've gotta go.
196
00:08:23,842 --> 00:08:25,323
Okay.
197
00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:34,040
I wish I could be
there with you.
198
00:08:35,142 --> 00:08:36,448
Hey, guys, what's up?
199
00:08:37,183 --> 00:08:38,183
Hey, TC.
200
00:08:38,423 --> 00:08:39,463
What are you doing here?
201
00:08:39,548 --> 00:08:42,041
I can't let you go to school
alone on your first day.
202
00:08:42,259 --> 00:08:44,439
They like to pick on
the new kid. Believe me.
203
00:08:44,524 --> 00:08:46,050
Boy, please.
204
00:08:46,135 --> 00:08:48,183
I am still the Queen of
Garfield if I wanna be.
205
00:08:48,268 --> 00:08:49,969
Okay, well,
the Queen of Garfield
206
00:08:50,054 --> 00:08:53,776
is about to be late,
so, come on, come on.
207
00:08:56,701 --> 00:08:58,140
[door closes]
208
00:08:58,224 --> 00:09:00,358
- [typing]
- [machine beeping]
209
00:09:08,495 --> 00:09:10,368
[typing continues]
210
00:09:16,590 --> 00:09:19,420
- Is this a bad time?
- Not at all.
211
00:09:19,858 --> 00:09:21,689
Sorry about that.
212
00:09:21,813 --> 00:09:25,151
Finalizing plans to acquire
a stockpile of promethium.
213
00:09:25,904 --> 00:09:28,649
For the family suits to
protect against the new DEGs.
214
00:09:28,733 --> 00:09:29,808
I know what "acquire" means.
215
00:09:29,892 --> 00:09:32,112
Just... be careful.
216
00:09:34,260 --> 00:09:35,872
You wanted to talk.
217
00:09:36,636 --> 00:09:38,598
It's about my sobriety.
218
00:09:38,744 --> 00:09:40,401
I've come a long way
in the last year,
219
00:09:40,486 --> 00:09:43,840
but not quite far enough.
220
00:09:43,925 --> 00:09:45,100
You're being too hard
on yourself.
221
00:09:45,184 --> 00:09:47,338
No. It's true.
222
00:09:47,509 --> 00:09:49,456
I can acknowledge that.
223
00:09:50,254 --> 00:09:52,040
But it's why I need your help.
224
00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:54,124
I'm listening.
225
00:09:56,423 --> 00:09:58,210
This vial...
226
00:09:58,497 --> 00:10:03,002
contains meta powers
belonging to Tobias's attorney, Val.
227
00:10:03,369 --> 00:10:06,557
Jeff and I believe it's
possible she killed the mayor...
228
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:10,309
but we need to know what
her powers were to confirm that.
229
00:10:10,895 --> 00:10:13,377
And you need a non-meta host?
230
00:10:14,300 --> 00:10:16,913
And I don't wanna risk
being triggered.
231
00:10:18,470 --> 00:10:19,951
Say no more.
232
00:10:52,916 --> 00:10:55,400
Am I supposed to
feel something?
233
00:10:55,906 --> 00:11:00,174
Well, you might feel a delicate sensation
just under the surface of the skin,
234
00:11:00,259 --> 00:11:04,877
like... waves of energy
pushing into your tissue,
235
00:11:04,989 --> 00:11:08,534
and then it happens
simultaneously...
236
00:11:09,809 --> 00:11:12,161
and you become the feeling.
237
00:11:13,620 --> 00:11:16,831
But it might be different
for everyone.
238
00:11:17,485 --> 00:11:19,271
I don't feel anything.
239
00:11:20,366 --> 00:11:21,978
Something's wrong.
240
00:11:23,809 --> 00:11:25,333
It's not working.
241
00:11:34,706 --> 00:11:35,831
Hey, man.
242
00:11:35,916 --> 00:11:38,061
I'm sorry to ask you here
on such short notice.
243
00:11:38,913 --> 00:11:41,308
I need to show you something.
244
00:11:46,131 --> 00:11:49,180
I figured it's the kind of thing
you tell a man face-to-face,
245
00:11:49,264 --> 00:11:51,659
with it being
your father's house and all.
246
00:11:52,578 --> 00:11:53,930
This can't be happening.
247
00:11:54,015 --> 00:11:56,366
Well, half the neighborhood
got one.
248
00:11:56,721 --> 00:11:58,276
I'll look into this.
249
00:11:58,360 --> 00:11:59,519
You and your kids
aren't goin' anywhere.
250
00:11:59,603 --> 00:12:01,453
- Oh, no, no. You don't have to.
- It'll only be a couple of hours.
251
00:12:01,537 --> 00:12:04,282
No, really,
Jefferson, it's fine.
252
00:12:04,366 --> 00:12:06,937
Look, I know you've got
a lot on your plate right now.
253
00:12:07,021 --> 00:12:10,374
Besides, tonight I pick up
the keys for our new house.
254
00:12:11,333 --> 00:12:12,639
What?
255
00:12:13,077 --> 00:12:15,065
That's great.
256
00:12:15,855 --> 00:12:18,675
Yeah, I had no doubt you
were gonna turn things around.
257
00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:22,429
Yeah, and to think I owe it to a
man I had no intentions of voting for.
258
00:12:24,178 --> 00:12:25,443
I'm not following you.
259
00:12:25,723 --> 00:12:28,597
The albino dude.
260
00:12:32,351 --> 00:12:34,008
Tobias Whale?
261
00:12:34,092 --> 00:12:37,664
Yeah. He stopped by your dad's
house earlier with a developer.
262
00:12:37,748 --> 00:12:40,971
Some business about a hospital
they plan on building on the land.
263
00:12:41,055 --> 00:12:45,019
Well, part of the deal was
relocation funds for families like mine.
264
00:12:45,103 --> 00:12:47,019
So...
265
00:12:50,978 --> 00:12:52,766
[school bell rings]
266
00:12:52,850 --> 00:12:55,682
We still have time
for a grand tour before lunch.
267
00:12:55,766 --> 00:12:59,018
Don't be cute. I gave you
your first tour of this place.
268
00:12:59,103 --> 00:13:01,382
And that's the point.
It's poetic. Look.
269
00:13:01,467 --> 00:13:05,039
- [cell phone chimes]
- Hold on.
270
00:13:05,123 --> 00:13:09,652
There's a video going viral of Lightning
opening a can on the Freeland PD.
271
00:13:09,736 --> 00:13:12,220
The people love
when I do my thing.
272
00:13:12,304 --> 00:13:14,788
Yeah, I've been
meaning to ask you.
273
00:13:14,872 --> 00:13:20,054
Have you been having any abnormal
side effects since the transformation?
274
00:13:20,138 --> 00:13:21,751
Or just been feeling
weird at all?
275
00:13:21,835 --> 00:13:27,148
Please let Uncle Gambi know,
for the last time, I feel fine.
276
00:13:27,232 --> 00:13:29,019
I told him it wouldn't work.
277
00:13:29,103 --> 00:13:32,327
Only weirdness I'm dealing with
today are all the Jen questions.
278
00:13:32,411 --> 00:13:33,807
What have you been
telling everyone?
279
00:13:33,891 --> 00:13:35,809
That she joined an nunnery.
280
00:13:35,893 --> 00:13:37,332
You can't be serious.
281
00:13:37,416 --> 00:13:40,117
What? The sisters are
desperate for more sisters.
282
00:13:40,201 --> 00:13:41,597
I'm just trying to get
the word out.
283
00:13:41,681 --> 00:13:42,903
Yeah, no.
284
00:13:42,987 --> 00:13:45,427
I said she took an opportunity
to study abroad.
285
00:13:45,511 --> 00:13:46,760
They all bought it.
286
00:13:46,993 --> 00:13:49,564
Well, that is a crying shame.
287
00:13:49,907 --> 00:13:53,000
Principal Pierce out here
preaching about positivity.
288
00:13:53,084 --> 00:13:57,918
Meanwhile, he lines his own pockets with
the money that we, the students, earned.
289
00:13:58,002 --> 00:14:01,095
Man, we outperformed every
other public school in Freeland
290
00:14:01,179 --> 00:14:02,879
and we gained
the community support.
291
00:14:02,963 --> 00:14:07,666
That money belongs to us
and we demand justice.
292
00:14:07,750 --> 00:14:09,712
- Is Montel serious right now?
- Yes.
293
00:14:09,796 --> 00:14:13,198
Yo, you need to
kill that noise, dawg.
294
00:14:13,283 --> 00:14:14,200
[scoffs]
295
00:14:14,285 --> 00:14:16,029
So you support
Principal Pierce?
296
00:14:16,114 --> 00:14:18,337
We don't even know
if he did it.
297
00:14:18,422 --> 00:14:22,159
But I see all you care about
is bein' an online activist.
298
00:14:22,243 --> 00:14:26,727
I'm sorry, Mr. Refresh-My-Memory,
who are you again?
299
00:14:26,906 --> 00:14:28,519
I'm nobody.
300
00:14:28,604 --> 00:14:31,088
Just know you're trying to ruin
a man's name to get clout.
301
00:14:31,312 --> 00:14:32,749
It's not cool.
302
00:14:32,834 --> 00:14:34,315
Yeah, nice talk, man.
303
00:14:36,431 --> 00:14:39,262
- Loser!
- Dork.
304
00:14:46,652 --> 00:14:49,309
Hey, I can introduce you.
305
00:14:49,394 --> 00:14:51,180
Nah, I got it.
306
00:14:51,794 --> 00:14:53,710
[imitating] "Nah, I got it."
307
00:14:56,598 --> 00:14:58,253
Hi.
308
00:14:58,338 --> 00:14:59,385
Hey.
309
00:14:59,470 --> 00:15:02,612
I just wanted to say
thanks for what you did.
310
00:15:03,632 --> 00:15:05,065
Don't even mention it.
311
00:15:05,150 --> 00:15:09,237
I just can't stand this goofy
cancel culture thing we live in.
312
00:15:10,110 --> 00:15:12,812
- You're new here, right?
- That obvious?
313
00:15:13,077 --> 00:15:16,049
In your case, it is.
I don't remember seeing you.
314
00:15:16,134 --> 00:15:17,704
I'm JJ.
315
00:15:17,789 --> 00:15:18,880
Eriah.
316
00:15:18,965 --> 00:15:20,521
The Pierces are
actually my fam.
317
00:15:20,606 --> 00:15:23,742
- Hence the gratitude.
- So you know Jen?
318
00:15:23,826 --> 00:15:25,831
We're cousins on her
mom's side.
319
00:15:25,916 --> 00:15:27,940
Word, that's dope.
320
00:15:28,184 --> 00:15:31,887
Well, how you likin' ol'
Garfield so far?
321
00:15:32,112 --> 00:15:33,897
Getting better by the minute.
322
00:15:35,498 --> 00:15:38,159
I could show you around
if you want.
323
00:15:38,244 --> 00:15:39,213
Really?
324
00:15:39,298 --> 00:15:42,768
That would be so great.
I've literally been lost all day.
325
00:15:43,258 --> 00:15:46,706
All right. Let me see
your schedule...
326
00:15:50,537 --> 00:15:52,127
Thirsty.
327
00:15:53,515 --> 00:15:56,956
Ah! Boom! Looks like
we got band class together.
328
00:15:57,141 --> 00:15:59,320
Cool. Well, lead the way.
329
00:15:59,514 --> 00:16:01,344
[school bell rings]
330
00:16:06,151 --> 00:16:09,939
When exactly do they plan on
building this hospital?
331
00:16:11,635 --> 00:16:15,902
I am fully aware
of how eminent domain works.
332
00:16:16,771 --> 00:16:19,690
I don't want to
challenge the appraisal.
333
00:16:19,774 --> 00:16:22,735
It's my father's house.
I don't wanna sell it at all.
334
00:16:24,518 --> 00:16:27,217
Yeah, sure, I will hold.
335
00:16:27,347 --> 00:16:28,784
Again.
336
00:16:30,437 --> 00:16:31,876
You know, forget this.
337
00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:33,702
Who was on the phone?
338
00:16:35,282 --> 00:16:36,678
Nobody.
339
00:16:36,763 --> 00:16:39,362
Dad, I know I'm going
through a lot with the change,
340
00:16:39,446 --> 00:16:41,841
but don't hide things
to protect me.
341
00:16:46,931 --> 00:16:50,547
City plans on tearing down
your grandfather's house
342
00:16:50,631 --> 00:16:53,113
and putting a hospital
in its place.
343
00:16:53,547 --> 00:16:55,116
Can they do that?
344
00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:56,727
Well, legally, yeah.
345
00:16:56,811 --> 00:16:59,206
But they have to pay you
for it, right?
346
00:16:59,291 --> 00:17:00,556
That's sort of
347
00:17:00,641 --> 00:17:02,775
what the phone call
was all about.
348
00:17:04,206 --> 00:17:05,384
Get that bank.
349
00:17:05,469 --> 00:17:07,095
Not like we use
the house anyways.
350
00:17:08,823 --> 00:17:12,743
Your grandfather worked hard
to purchase that house,
351
00:17:12,827 --> 00:17:14,571
and he handed it down to me,
352
00:17:14,655 --> 00:17:15,659
and I wanted to hand it down
353
00:17:15,743 --> 00:17:17,269
to my kids. You know...
354
00:17:17,353 --> 00:17:18,401
Generational wealth
355
00:17:18,485 --> 00:17:19,619
and all that.
356
00:17:19,703 --> 00:17:20,925
Anissa don't want it.
357
00:17:21,009 --> 00:17:22,622
You see how she's living.
358
00:17:22,706 --> 00:17:25,016
And if being popular worked
for the Kardashians,
359
00:17:25,100 --> 00:17:26,757
then I am set.
360
00:17:26,841 --> 00:17:29,412
It's the principle
of the thing.
361
00:17:29,496 --> 00:17:31,588
Your grandfather, a Black man,
362
00:17:31,672 --> 00:17:35,198
managed to own something
that he wanted to hand down.
363
00:17:36,938 --> 00:17:39,202
I'm sorry this is
happening, Daddy.
364
00:17:44,032 --> 00:17:46,906
You haven't called me
"Daddy" in years.
365
00:17:50,647 --> 00:17:53,303
Gotta change up
every once in a while.
366
00:17:56,697 --> 00:17:58,439
Yeah, speaking of change.
367
00:18:00,091 --> 00:18:01,574
How did the first day
of school go?
368
00:18:01,658 --> 00:18:04,969
Not too rough, I hope?
369
00:18:05,053 --> 00:18:06,797
It wasn't rough at all.
370
00:18:06,881 --> 00:18:09,147
Kids were protesting for you.
371
00:18:09,231 --> 00:18:11,060
It was cool.
372
00:18:11,581 --> 00:18:13,889
Well, that's good to hear.
373
00:18:29,077 --> 00:18:32,344
Kiki, hey, girl,
it's been a minute.
374
00:18:32,428 --> 00:18:35,652
- [laughs]
- Okay, I see you, Dr. Pierce.
375
00:18:35,736 --> 00:18:37,523
White coat and everything.
376
00:18:37,607 --> 00:18:39,656
It is so good to see you.
377
00:18:39,740 --> 00:18:41,005
What brings you in?
378
00:18:41,089 --> 00:18:42,398
Marvin's gon' be a daddy.
379
00:18:42,482 --> 00:18:43,703
I'll be 17 weeks tomorrow.
380
00:18:43,787 --> 00:18:45,226
That is so beautiful.
381
00:18:45,310 --> 00:18:46,271
Congratulations.
382
00:18:46,355 --> 00:18:48,012
Thank you.
383
00:18:48,096 --> 00:18:51,842
One of the tests they're
offering came back abnormal.
384
00:18:51,926 --> 00:18:53,409
Abnormal how?
385
00:18:53,493 --> 00:18:56,499
Doctor said that the test
show markers for cystic fibrosis.
386
00:18:56,583 --> 00:18:59,850
Which will be taken care of
this evening
387
00:18:59,934 --> 00:19:02,155
with a simple
outpatient procedure.
388
00:19:04,721 --> 00:19:06,289
Can I talk to you in private?
389
00:19:06,941 --> 00:19:07,945
Yeah, sure.
390
00:19:08,029 --> 00:19:09,250
Okay, look,
I won't keep him long,
391
00:19:09,334 --> 00:19:10,426
but you make sure
392
00:19:10,510 --> 00:19:11,862
you tell Marvin
I said hi, okay?
393
00:19:11,946 --> 00:19:12,993
Will do.
394
00:19:13,077 --> 00:19:16,125
It's so good to
see you, Kiki. Bye.
395
00:19:26,308 --> 00:19:27,399
Why did you just lie to her?
396
00:19:27,483 --> 00:19:29,488
We can't just fix
cystic fibrosis.
397
00:19:29,572 --> 00:19:30,837
We can now.
398
00:19:30,921 --> 00:19:32,665
The facility partnered
with Monovista.
399
00:19:32,749 --> 00:19:34,711
Their medical division
has discovered a way
400
00:19:34,795 --> 00:19:36,452
to isolate chromosome seven.
401
00:19:36,536 --> 00:19:37,757
You're kidding. You're saying
402
00:19:37,841 --> 00:19:39,716
a full removal of
the CFTR gene mutation?
403
00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:41,413
- Yes.
- What?
404
00:19:41,497 --> 00:19:42,936
That's cool, right?
405
00:19:43,020 --> 00:19:44,547
I mean,
cutting edge gene editing.
406
00:19:44,631 --> 00:19:45,548
How the hell am I
407
00:19:45,632 --> 00:19:47,113
just findin' out about this?
408
00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:50,078
Well, to be honest,
409
00:19:50,365 --> 00:19:52,249
I don't think anyone has.
410
00:19:52,334 --> 00:19:54,557
Pregnant patients
with the diagnosis get flagged
411
00:19:54,641 --> 00:19:56,922
and then referred
to Monovista for treatment.
412
00:19:59,017 --> 00:20:01,594
Speaking of which,
I should get back to your friend.
413
00:20:01,679 --> 00:20:04,683
- Yeah. Go ahead. I'm on my...
- I'll see you later.
414
00:20:06,043 --> 00:20:07,110
[clears throat]
415
00:20:07,305 --> 00:20:08,832
[Lauren] I think
that should do it.
416
00:20:08,916 --> 00:20:11,095
We extended the emitter's
energy radiance to 55 miles
417
00:20:11,179 --> 00:20:12,531
for final simulation.
418
00:20:12,615 --> 00:20:14,533
Before long,
you'll have one of these
419
00:20:14,617 --> 00:20:16,274
in every major city
across the country.
420
00:20:16,358 --> 00:20:20,800
Providing sustainable energy
for millions of Americans.
421
00:20:20,884 --> 00:20:23,236
Only one thing left to do.
422
00:20:28,196 --> 00:20:29,502
[machine beeps]
423
00:20:33,554 --> 00:20:34,819
[machine error message plays]
424
00:20:34,904 --> 00:20:35,951
It's not working.
425
00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:38,470
Should I run
a quick diagnostic?
426
00:20:38,554 --> 00:20:40,514
Would Nikola run a diagnostic?
427
00:20:44,125 --> 00:20:45,432
[keyboard clacking]
428
00:20:49,434 --> 00:20:50,916
[beeping]
429
00:20:55,049 --> 00:20:56,530
It worked!
430
00:20:57,051 --> 00:20:58,621
Congratulations.
431
00:20:58,705 --> 00:21:00,753
Wait until Mr. Bates sees this.
432
00:21:00,837 --> 00:21:03,103
Mass production, here we come.
433
00:21:03,187 --> 00:21:05,279
You're gonna need
a lot of promethium for that.
434
00:21:05,363 --> 00:21:07,499
What you have here
won't even begin to cut it.
435
00:21:07,583 --> 00:21:09,806
- Already covered.
- Really?
436
00:21:09,890 --> 00:21:12,112
Well, before we get
too far ahead of ourselves,
437
00:21:12,196 --> 00:21:13,392
we should celebrate.
438
00:21:13,477 --> 00:21:15,072
Yes, absolutely.
439
00:21:15,156 --> 00:21:16,360
In the mood for Italian?
440
00:21:16,445 --> 00:21:17,547
More than you know, Peter.
441
00:21:17,632 --> 00:21:20,360
[chuckles]
I'll make us a reservation.
442
00:21:21,849 --> 00:21:24,289
[alarm blaring]
443
00:21:24,391 --> 00:21:27,344
Wait... Do you want me
to go check that out?
444
00:21:27,429 --> 00:21:28,781
It's my special cooling system.
445
00:21:28,865 --> 00:21:30,479
I'm the only one with access.
446
00:21:30,563 --> 00:21:32,698
Well, if this thing overheats,
it'll go up like an A-bomb.
447
00:21:32,782 --> 00:21:35,525
It's probably nothing.
Give me a few minutes.
448
00:21:36,438 --> 00:21:38,050
[Lauren sighs]
449
00:22:38,334 --> 00:22:39,512
Sorry about that.
450
00:22:39,620 --> 00:22:42,059
False alarm.
Shall we go?
451
00:22:51,731 --> 00:22:53,603
I'll take that as a yes.
452
00:22:54,995 --> 00:22:56,652
[woman on radio] All units,
please be advised.
453
00:22:56,736 --> 00:22:58,436
We have a 10-57 in progress.
454
00:22:58,520 --> 00:23:00,090
Officers in pursuit
455
00:23:00,174 --> 00:23:03,222
heading north on MLK Boulevard
on 9th Street, northwest.
456
00:23:15,842 --> 00:23:18,150
You know,
it didn't have to be like this.
457
00:23:22,196 --> 00:23:25,202
Tell me where Blackbird is,
458
00:23:25,286 --> 00:23:30,162
and I won't kill every last
member of her resistance.
459
00:23:31,368 --> 00:23:33,241
Startin' right here.
460
00:23:34,599 --> 00:23:36,385
Ready when you are.
461
00:23:37,994 --> 00:23:40,520
[Ishmael chuckles]
462
00:23:44,697 --> 00:23:46,613
You know,
for what it's worth...
463
00:23:48,744 --> 00:23:51,357
you'll die an honorable man.
464
00:23:55,969 --> 00:23:58,755
[grunts and sputters]
465
00:24:14,814 --> 00:24:16,338
[device beeping]
466
00:24:17,773 --> 00:24:19,385
[Ishmael] Yeah.
467
00:24:20,428 --> 00:24:23,650
Come out, come out,
wherever you are.
468
00:24:29,493 --> 00:24:32,021
[Grace] Thanks again
for stopping by to check on me.
469
00:24:32,105 --> 00:24:33,711
And for the extra calories.
470
00:24:33,796 --> 00:24:35,415
[Jen laughs] No problem.
471
00:24:35,499 --> 00:24:36,939
If anybody threw me
a surprise party,
472
00:24:37,023 --> 00:24:38,723
I'd be hella mad.
473
00:24:38,807 --> 00:24:39,942
[chuckles] Why?
474
00:24:40,026 --> 00:24:42,407
I need to be party fly.
475
00:24:42,540 --> 00:24:43,806
There's always pictures.
476
00:24:43,890 --> 00:24:45,851
You're hilarious.
477
00:24:45,935 --> 00:24:47,200
But let me check on you.
478
00:24:47,284 --> 00:24:49,853
How'd it feel
to be back at Garfield?
479
00:24:50,736 --> 00:24:52,306
Good.
480
00:24:52,391 --> 00:24:54,307
I love my schedule.
481
00:24:54,901 --> 00:24:57,428
Finally got a music class.
482
00:24:57,633 --> 00:24:59,909
You know, the thing about
shape-shifting,
483
00:24:59,993 --> 00:25:02,999
you learn to read
body language quite well.
484
00:25:03,083 --> 00:25:07,828
And yours is telling
a much different story.
485
00:25:08,740 --> 00:25:11,310
So out with it.
486
00:25:12,135 --> 00:25:13,487
Students were protesting
487
00:25:13,571 --> 00:25:16,447
my dad's embezzlement
charges in the halls.
488
00:25:16,531 --> 00:25:18,492
[sighs softly]
That's horrible, Jen.
489
00:25:18,576 --> 00:25:22,582
He devoted his life to Garfield
and they turned on him.
490
00:25:24,713 --> 00:25:27,110
Well, not everybody.
491
00:25:27,194 --> 00:25:30,243
This guy spoke up for him.
492
00:25:30,407 --> 00:25:33,577
Your body language
is now screaming "crush."
493
00:25:33,662 --> 00:25:35,666
- [Jen laughs]
- [Grace] What's that like?
494
00:25:35,847 --> 00:25:38,634
Believe it or not, perfect.
495
00:25:39,111 --> 00:25:41,172
I guess JJ's more his type.
496
00:25:41,257 --> 00:25:43,447
Who cares what his type is?
497
00:25:43,532 --> 00:25:46,818
You focus on feeling
comfortable in your own skin.
498
00:25:46,902 --> 00:25:48,297
I think I'm getting there.
499
00:25:48,381 --> 00:25:51,429
- His approval shouldn't be why.
- Definitely not.
500
00:25:51,863 --> 00:25:53,694
But I do like him.
501
00:25:53,778 --> 00:25:55,478
All right, just take it slow.
502
00:25:55,562 --> 00:25:58,351
I wouldn't be too quick
to trust this boy.
503
00:25:58,435 --> 00:25:59,831
[cell phone chiming]
504
00:25:59,915 --> 00:26:01,787
Yep. I'm sorry, hold up.
505
00:26:02,918 --> 00:26:04,660
[crowd cheering on video]
506
00:26:05,834 --> 00:26:07,315
[sighs in exasperation]
507
00:26:11,404 --> 00:26:13,235
[crowd cheering]
508
00:26:13,319 --> 00:26:15,845
[man in crowd] Yeah!
Tobias! Whoo!
509
00:26:18,237 --> 00:26:20,503
Yeah. Leave it to Freeland
to turn this into a party.
510
00:26:20,587 --> 00:26:22,201
[crowd laughs]
511
00:26:22,285 --> 00:26:24,203
Maybe it's because we're
up so big in the polls, yeah?
512
00:26:24,287 --> 00:26:26,074
[crowd laughing]
513
00:26:26,158 --> 00:26:27,554
[Tobias] As many of you
may know,
514
00:26:27,638 --> 00:26:29,164
Freeland is suffering
from one of the worst
515
00:26:29,248 --> 00:26:32,080
economic hardships
in recent history.
516
00:26:32,164 --> 00:26:35,040
The homeless epidemic
is at an all-time high.
517
00:26:35,124 --> 00:26:37,346
Local businesses are
closing down all over the city.
518
00:26:37,430 --> 00:26:38,608
[man] That's right.
519
00:26:38,692 --> 00:26:41,002
And what's this I hear
about Garfield High?
520
00:26:41,234 --> 00:26:43,934
Have you guys been
following the news lately?
521
00:26:44,524 --> 00:26:45,877
I think Principal Pierce
522
00:26:45,961 --> 00:26:48,618
has been arrested
on embezzlement charges.
523
00:26:48,702 --> 00:26:52,144
Don't quote me on that
because I haven't been briefed.
524
00:26:52,228 --> 00:26:53,667
But it sounds terrible.
525
00:26:53,751 --> 00:26:56,278
[crowd booing]
526
00:26:56,362 --> 00:26:59,758
[Tobias] It's no secret that
Freeland has fallen from grace.
527
00:27:01,324 --> 00:27:04,504
But I tell you, the best part
about gettin' knocked down...
528
00:27:04,588 --> 00:27:06,767
is you have the chance
to come back stronger
529
00:27:06,851 --> 00:27:08,290
and better than ever before.
530
00:27:08,374 --> 00:27:09,378
[crowd clapping]
531
00:27:09,462 --> 00:27:11,903
[Tobias] That starts
with leadership,
532
00:27:11,987 --> 00:27:15,602
the kinda leadership
my campaign is built on.
533
00:27:15,686 --> 00:27:17,430
Tonight I plan to share
something with you
534
00:27:17,514 --> 00:27:21,086
that I think is gonna
be a big win for Freeland.
535
00:27:21,170 --> 00:27:23,566
But first, there's someone
I'd like you to meet.
536
00:27:23,650 --> 00:27:25,786
[woman] Who do you think it is?
537
00:27:25,870 --> 00:27:27,438
[man] Who do you think it is?
538
00:27:28,090 --> 00:27:30,617
This is Marcel Payton.
539
00:27:30,701 --> 00:27:33,836
Marcel happens to be
a teacher at Garfield High,
540
00:27:34,531 --> 00:27:35,840
and before today,
541
00:27:35,924 --> 00:27:38,928
Marcel and his lovely children
were homeless,
542
00:27:40,189 --> 00:27:41,106
but I was blessed
543
00:27:41,190 --> 00:27:42,324
and fortunate enough
544
00:27:42,408 --> 00:27:43,108
to change that.
545
00:27:43,192 --> 00:27:45,500
[crowd cheering on video]
546
00:27:53,289 --> 00:27:55,816
Be sure to check offshore
accounts for identity theft.
547
00:27:55,900 --> 00:27:56,774
Swiss, Cayman Islands.
548
00:27:56,858 --> 00:27:58,295
Yes, sir.
549
00:27:59,948 --> 00:28:01,909
Are you okay, Jeff?
550
00:28:01,993 --> 00:28:04,607
Tobias said some
pretty nasty things back there.
551
00:28:04,691 --> 00:28:06,871
- Did you expect different.
- [TC] I got something.
552
00:28:06,955 --> 00:28:09,221
A dozen transfers
from the education fund
553
00:28:09,305 --> 00:28:11,484
into both of
your daughters' trusts.
554
00:28:11,568 --> 00:28:12,659
No middleman.
555
00:28:12,743 --> 00:28:13,834
How is Tobias doing this?
556
00:28:13,918 --> 00:28:15,096
It's beyond devious.
557
00:28:15,180 --> 00:28:17,401
It's like you,
actually, kinda...
558
00:28:18,139 --> 00:28:19,603
I mean, I know that you didn't,
559
00:28:19,688 --> 00:28:22,669
but according to this,
you kinda did.
560
00:28:22,753 --> 00:28:25,498
Hey, I picked up some food
on my way back.
561
00:28:25,582 --> 00:28:26,847
Why don't we take a break?
562
00:28:26,931 --> 00:28:27,848
[Jefferson] No, Not now.
Keep going, TC.
563
00:28:27,932 --> 00:28:29,894
[Lynn] Take it easy.
564
00:28:30,079 --> 00:28:32,300
Something's wrong.
I can't hear anything.
565
00:28:33,285 --> 00:28:34,724
Your powers aren't working?
566
00:28:34,808 --> 00:28:35,987
Are you okay?
567
00:28:36,071 --> 00:28:37,162
Do you feel light-headed?
568
00:28:37,246 --> 00:28:39,947
I'm fine. I'm fine, I just...
569
00:28:40,031 --> 00:28:41,906
I can't talk to the system.
570
00:28:41,990 --> 00:28:43,646
Okay, well, do it manually.
We're close.
571
00:28:43,730 --> 00:28:46,213
I don't know how to do that.
572
00:28:47,082 --> 00:28:48,608
- Perfect.
- Jeff.
573
00:28:48,692 --> 00:28:51,392
Let me see if I can
do it from this other terminal.
574
00:28:52,087 --> 00:28:54,351
Has anything like this
happened before?
575
00:28:54,785 --> 00:28:56,007
Never.
576
00:28:56,091 --> 00:28:57,269
[rhythmic beeping]
577
00:28:57,353 --> 00:28:59,793
Wait, they're back.
They're back.
578
00:28:59,877 --> 00:29:02,620
[TC breathing heavily]
579
00:29:03,968 --> 00:29:05,190
And they're gone again.
580
00:29:05,274 --> 00:29:07,018
I'm sorry, guys.
I don't know what's wrong.
581
00:29:07,102 --> 00:29:09,020
Oh, my God.
582
00:29:09,104 --> 00:29:10,412
TC's powers are dormant
583
00:29:10,496 --> 00:29:13,024
because I injected Gambi
with Val's meta-booster.
584
00:29:13,108 --> 00:29:14,806
Jeff, light it up.
585
00:29:17,329 --> 00:29:18,203
Nothing.
586
00:29:18,287 --> 00:29:20,247
I think Val is a nullifier.
587
00:29:20,724 --> 00:29:22,207
A what?
588
00:29:22,291 --> 00:29:24,731
That explains why
I didn't feel anything.
589
00:29:24,815 --> 00:29:27,952
A nullifier's power stops other
metas from having powers.
590
00:29:28,036 --> 00:29:31,910
If what you're saying is true, we
need to find the Mayor's killer fast.
591
00:29:32,205 --> 00:29:33,447
Tobias is in possession
592
00:29:33,532 --> 00:29:36,041
of the single greatest threat
to our family in Val.
593
00:29:46,477 --> 00:29:49,669
[Jen] I'm bad luck.
I always knew it.
594
00:29:50,931 --> 00:29:52,414
You're not bad luck, JJ.
595
00:29:52,647 --> 00:29:54,565
I've been in band class
for two days
596
00:29:54,649 --> 00:29:58,047
and the school decides to cut
the entire music program?
597
00:29:58,131 --> 00:30:00,134
It's me. I'm sure of it.
598
00:30:01,700 --> 00:30:05,924
Hey. Nah, we gotta
do something about this.
599
00:30:06,008 --> 00:30:07,491
I mean, we gotta fight it.
600
00:30:07,575 --> 00:30:10,102
We can't just let them
kick us to the curb like this.
601
00:30:10,186 --> 00:30:12,277
What if we tried
raising the money?
602
00:30:13,713 --> 00:30:15,674
How?
603
00:30:15,931 --> 00:30:19,806
This is gonna sound crazy,
but I might know a way.
604
00:30:25,701 --> 00:30:27,487
I'm all ears.
605
00:30:40,434 --> 00:30:42,960
[sighs] You can never be
too certain.
606
00:31:08,723 --> 00:31:12,424
Oh, my God. [Breathing heavily]
607
00:31:19,386 --> 00:31:22,652
[cell phone dialing]
608
00:31:27,568 --> 00:31:30,703
[cell phone vibrating]
609
00:31:36,882 --> 00:31:38,060
Jeff.
610
00:31:38,144 --> 00:31:39,496
[Jefferson] Hey,
I saw your call.
611
00:31:39,580 --> 00:31:41,368
So, the test prove
we were right about Val?
612
00:31:41,452 --> 00:31:43,065
[Lynn] Yeah.
613
00:31:43,149 --> 00:31:45,285
Um, so far. That's...
614
00:31:45,369 --> 00:31:47,243
That's not why I called.
615
00:31:47,327 --> 00:31:48,939
[Jefferson] Everything okay?
616
00:31:52,593 --> 00:31:54,337
Fine. I just wanted
to let you know
617
00:31:54,421 --> 00:31:55,730
that I'll probably work
late tonight.
618
00:31:55,814 --> 00:31:57,166
[Jefferson] Oh, okay.
619
00:31:57,250 --> 00:31:59,211
Well, I'm headed back
to the Sanctum now.
620
00:31:59,295 --> 00:32:00,343
[Lynn] Have you slept?
621
00:32:00,427 --> 00:32:01,475
Has Tobias?
622
00:32:01,559 --> 00:32:02,650
[Lynn] Fair enough.
623
00:32:02,734 --> 00:32:04,911
- I'll see you tonight.
- Okay.
624
00:32:06,085 --> 00:32:07,740
[call ends]
625
00:32:34,592 --> 00:32:37,380
[Thunder] All right, TC,
I'm in. Copy?
626
00:32:37,464 --> 00:32:38,989
I'm here.
627
00:32:40,598 --> 00:32:42,907
[Thunder] The drive is in.
628
00:32:42,991 --> 00:32:45,693
Go ahead. Do what you gotta do
so we can get out of here.
629
00:32:45,777 --> 00:32:47,303
[Grace] What exactly
are we looking for?
630
00:32:47,387 --> 00:32:49,697
[Thunder] A chart on Kiki's
cystic fibrosis procedure.
631
00:32:49,781 --> 00:32:51,960
[keyboard clacking]
632
00:32:52,044 --> 00:32:54,484
[rustling]
633
00:32:54,568 --> 00:32:56,051
[Grace] I think
we've got company.
634
00:32:56,135 --> 00:32:58,314
[Thunder] Are you sure
you heard something?
635
00:32:58,398 --> 00:33:00,053
[Grace] Positive.
636
00:33:06,319 --> 00:33:09,410
[Grace] And this company
is not the friendly kind.
637
00:33:10,628 --> 00:33:12,849
[metal clinking]
638
00:33:29,385 --> 00:33:31,128

[Thunder breathing heavily]
647
00:34:17,608 --> 00:34:20,048
We all have to
breathe sometime.
648
00:34:20,132 --> 00:34:21,482
[Grace] Hey!
649
00:34:24,005 --> 00:34:26,226
- [Ishmael grunting]
- [knife stabbing]
650
00:34:27,661 --> 00:34:29,536

- [Grace yelling, grunting]
- [Ishmael grunts]
655
00:34:49,857 --> 00:34:52,035
[Grace] Who is this maniac?
656
00:34:54,122 --> 00:34:55,953
[Thunder] Beats the hell
outta me.
657
00:34:56,075 --> 00:34:57,687
[metal clinking]
658
00:35:00,085 --> 00:35:03,134
[Grace and Thunder yelling]
659
00:35:03,218 --> 00:35:06,537
Who I am is of no concern
to you when you're hit.
660
00:35:06,622 --> 00:35:08,787
Yeah, we'll see about that.
661
00:35:10,614 --> 00:35:12,182

[Bates grunts]
676
00:36:32,537 --> 00:36:33,631
[Bates] Are you
out of your mind?
677
00:36:33,715 --> 00:36:35,849
You can't... walk in here
and hit me.
678
00:36:35,934 --> 00:36:37,199
I need your attention.
679
00:36:37,284 --> 00:36:40,419
Then you say, "Excuse me,"
you animal.
680
00:36:40,566 --> 00:36:42,255
[Red] We need an update
on delivery,
681
00:36:42,460 --> 00:36:44,335
and you're not
takin' our calls.
682
00:36:44,419 --> 00:36:47,638
Tell Tobias
I don't work for him.
683
00:36:48,028 --> 00:36:50,864
Now get out before I have
security throw you out!
684
00:36:51,565 --> 00:36:53,177
Throw me out?
685
00:36:54,263 --> 00:36:55,962
So, you like golf?
686
00:36:57,457 --> 00:36:58,764
Let's play.
687
00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:02,205
Come on.
688
00:37:11,964 --> 00:37:14,402

00:37:18,855 --> 00:37:20,641
What do we have here?
691
00:37:22,396 --> 00:37:25,070
You saw the club.
We gotta keep an eye on Red.
692
00:37:25,155 --> 00:37:26,464
He's lookin' like
the Mayor's killer.
693
00:37:26,548 --> 00:37:27,552
I'm on it.
694
00:37:27,636 --> 00:37:29,467
[panel beeping]
695
00:37:29,551 --> 00:37:31,251
The bullet from Shakur could not
have retained any magnetic residue.
696
00:37:31,335 --> 00:37:32,521
I'm only able to get a reading
697
00:37:32,605 --> 00:37:35,000
because he's using an abundance
of power right now.
698
00:37:36,996 --> 00:37:38,661

00:37:43,630 --> 00:37:46,157
Whoa! What happened?
Where'd the signature go?
701
00:37:46,437 --> 00:37:48,051
He must have
stopped using his powers.
702
00:37:48,135 --> 00:37:50,053
We can't lose him.
I'm going after him.
703
00:37:50,137 --> 00:37:51,445
Hold on, hold on.
704
00:37:51,529 --> 00:37:54,882
I think you misunderstand
the purpose of my visit.

00:38:02,209 --> 00:38:05,215
It's ready. I swear to God,
the emitter's ready.
708
00:38:05,497 --> 00:38:08,044
We just need a few more days
to run some final tests.
709
00:38:08,107 --> 00:38:09,762
Tobias will understand.
710
00:38:10,152 --> 00:38:11,894
Please don't kill me.
711
00:38:14,069 --> 00:38:17,510
[Red] You have 48 hours
to deliver the emitter
712
00:38:17,594 --> 00:38:20,686
or that bullet
will have your name on it.
713
00:38:21,076 --> 00:38:23,167
[Bates breathing heavily]
714
00:38:24,253 --> 00:38:27,129
The bullet trick
is Red's calling card.
715
00:38:27,213 --> 00:38:29,521
Yeah, he's definitely
the Mayor's killer.
716
00:38:37,571 --> 00:38:38,749
[computer beeps]
717
00:38:38,833 --> 00:38:40,358
[TC] Oh.
718
00:38:43,098 --> 00:38:44,794
[TC exhales]
719
00:38:50,720 --> 00:38:52,419
[TC sighs]
720
00:38:53,979 --> 00:38:55,200
How is it lookin'?
721
00:38:55,302 --> 00:38:56,442
Kill order is still active,
722
00:38:56,527 --> 00:38:59,314
but the test isn't finished,
so, fingers crossed.
723
00:39:03,035 --> 00:39:05,039
What are you
gonna do with that?
724
00:39:05,553 --> 00:39:07,253
Well, it's just in case.
725
00:39:07,338 --> 00:39:09,474
In case what?
726
00:39:09,958 --> 00:39:11,841
Khalil will be helpless
during this procedure,
727
00:39:12,005 --> 00:39:15,716
and even though our connection
is secure, it ain't invisible.
728
00:39:16,074 --> 00:39:18,427
- Someone's gotta stand watch.
- [gun cocking]
729
00:39:18,512 --> 00:39:20,763
- Heads-up.
- Heads-up.
730
00:39:22,178 --> 00:39:23,792
[sighs]
731
00:39:24,080 --> 00:39:27,042
So, you think
this is gonna work this time?
732
00:39:27,142 --> 00:39:28,190
[TC] I sure hope so.
733
00:39:28,274 --> 00:39:30,235
You have no idea what it's like
734
00:39:30,319 --> 00:39:32,063
to walk through a digital door
in your head
735
00:39:32,147 --> 00:39:35,161
and the first thing you see
is Painkiller.
736
00:39:35,246 --> 00:39:36,424
I just ran.
737
00:39:36,509 --> 00:39:38,730
[laughs] Yeah, we know.
738
00:39:40,948 --> 00:39:42,604
And I remember
when my biggest fear
739
00:39:42,689 --> 00:39:45,958
was making sure I didn't lose
a track meet in front of Jen.
740
00:39:47,641 --> 00:39:48,948
How is she?
741
00:39:49,522 --> 00:39:51,440
Not good.
742
00:39:51,525 --> 00:39:54,140
Her dad is being investigated
by the FBI.
743
00:39:54,225 --> 00:39:55,316
You're kidding.
744
00:39:55,401 --> 00:39:56,753
[TC] Embezzlement.
745
00:39:56,838 --> 00:39:59,365
He thinks Tobias Whale
is behind it all.
746
00:39:59,677 --> 00:40:01,661
Of course it's Tobias.
747
00:40:01,930 --> 00:40:04,500
He won't stop
until Mr. Pierce is in prison.
748
00:40:04,748 --> 00:40:08,277
And I haven't found anything
that will clear his name.
749
00:40:08,401 --> 00:40:10,839
It's like the evidence
doesn't exist.
750
00:40:11,360 --> 00:40:13,322
If this is about money,
751
00:40:13,406 --> 00:40:16,107
I used to collect for Tobias.
I can help.
752
00:40:16,191 --> 00:40:17,543
[laughs] Yeah, right.
753
00:40:17,627 --> 00:40:19,632
Bro, you are not even
good at video games.
754
00:40:19,716 --> 00:40:21,983
You're no hacker.
Just leave it to me.
755
00:40:22,067 --> 00:40:24,723
Don't worry about that.
I have my ways.
756
00:40:26,506 --> 00:40:29,815
[sighs] All right,
let's get on with this.
757
00:40:34,366 --> 00:40:39,242
- [Grace] Ooh, that's it. That's it.
- [Thunder groaning]
758
00:40:39,904 --> 00:40:42,953
[groans] Ooh.
759
00:40:43,218 --> 00:40:44,440
I got something for him
760
00:40:44,524 --> 00:40:46,790
the minute Uncle Gambi
finds his ass.
761
00:40:46,874 --> 00:40:48,270
Don't you mean "we"?
762
00:40:48,354 --> 00:40:49,731
No, babe, I'm sorry.
763
00:40:49,816 --> 00:40:51,734
This is personal.
He tried to kill me.
764
00:40:51,819 --> 00:40:53,270
But we stopped him.
765
00:40:53,402 --> 00:40:55,364
Thank God you shifted
when you did.
766
00:40:55,448 --> 00:40:58,106
Like you said,
"On our toughest days,
767
00:40:58,190 --> 00:41:00,673
- we count on each other."
- [chuckles softly]
768
00:41:00,757 --> 00:41:02,413
[Gambi] How's the leg?
769
00:41:03,945 --> 00:41:05,341
[clears throat] It's fine.
770
00:41:05,545 --> 00:41:07,158
Listen, what do you
have on him?
771
00:41:07,242 --> 00:41:09,900
Not much.
He's known as Ishmael.
772
00:41:09,997 --> 00:41:12,685
Could be an assassin,
maybe a contract killer.
773
00:41:12,769 --> 00:41:13,755
What's the difference?
774
00:41:13,840 --> 00:41:15,192
One belongs to a secret order.
775
00:41:15,337 --> 00:41:16,994
The other either
works independently
776
00:41:17,078 --> 00:41:18,256
or for a criminal organization.
777
00:41:18,340 --> 00:41:20,737
If we're lucky,
it's the latter.
778
00:41:20,822 --> 00:41:22,174
Tell me about it.
779
00:41:22,259 --> 00:41:24,479
Look, he had counters
for every move we made.
780
00:41:24,564 --> 00:41:27,483
If he's some kinda
fanatic or some...
781
00:41:27,567 --> 00:41:30,616
Regardless, he clearly
reconned you and tracked you.
782
00:41:30,747 --> 00:41:32,488
- The question is how.
- [Thunder] I don't know.
783
00:41:32,572 --> 00:41:34,011
Who knows?
784
00:41:34,095 --> 00:41:35,317
But if he's huntin' us,
785
00:41:35,401 --> 00:41:37,605
he could be huntin'
the entire family.
786
00:41:40,729 --> 00:41:43,249
[Grace exhales nervously]
